Coldplay’s shoutout to Jasprit Bumrah

During Coldplay’s performance at the Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai, as part of their “Music Of The Spheres World Tour,” Martin took a moment to recognize local sports heroes, including Bumrah. The band’s gesture highlighted Bumrah’s worldwide fame and his status as one of India’s most celebrated cricketers.

However, the next day, Martin admitted that it had been a playful joke and later called Bumrah “No. 1 in the world” as he showed the video of Bumrah dismissing Pope.
